The Cure is releasing two new live songs on eco-friendly vinyl on October 1, their first new music in 16 years.
These tracks, “And Nothing Is Forever” and “I Can Never Say Goodbye,” have been featured in the band’s recent concerts as Robert Smith works on a new album called Songs of a Lost World, following up from 4:13 Dream. Naked Record Club will release this single named Novembre: Live in France 2022, and all profits will go to Brian Eno’s climate charity, Earth Percent. The first 100 out of the total 5,000 records will have Robert Smith’s signature. Check out the artwork below.
Eno expressed his gratitude by saying, “I’d like to thank The Cure and NAKED Record Club—both true innovators—for their generous support of vital climate projects through the release of The Cure – Novembre: Live In France 2022. It’s a powerful example of how the music community can work together to build a better world.”
The song “And Nothing Is Forever” was recorded live at Montpellier’s Sud de France Arena on November 8, 2022. Meanwhile, “I Can Never Say Goodbye” was captured five days later at Toulouse Zénith show. Naked Record Club uses an eco-friendly process for making vinyl records with less electricity and recyclable materials.
